Story Behind The Song
This song was inspired sitting at Starbucks with my favorite cup of joe, it got me thinking how silly it was to be so happy in that moment just because of a coffee. It opened up the thought that each moment is really part of a tapestry that builds a life.

Lyrics
In my tapestry are little moments
sometimes woven without notice
hidden in the chaos of a day
lost in clouds along the way
Some are colored like a rainbow
stored like jewels in a box
and some are simply faded out of view
thrown away like worn out shoes
Little Moments that turn the page
that fill the chapters and set the stage
that raise me up or bring me to my knees
Little Moments that build a life
are the bricks in the house of me
And some are labeled precious hours
some too painful to relive and some
are nondescript and hardly missed
even though their still a gift
And some are blessed and so imperfect
like you and me can sometimes be
some are broken and without repair
left in hopes of answered prayer
Little Moments that turn the page
that fill the chapters and set the stage
that raise me up or bring me to my knees
Little Moments that build a life
are the bricks in the house of me
And every breath I take, every moment
that I wake, I'm so grateful, grateful,
grateful, oh grateful....
For the moments to love again
for the moments to be a friend
for the moments to begin and
the moments that must end
for the light in the darkest hour
when the sweet has all gone sour
for the moments full of grace
and the moments you and I embrace...
grateful
Little Moments that turn the page
that fill the chapters and set the stage
that raise me up or bring me to my knees
Little Moments that build a life
are the bricks in the house of me
